It has been like that for three or four days now. I guess they got sorry for using that crap 'pick the letters that have cats in them' nonsense they`ve been using, whereby they show 5 characters with animals within or around them, and you must correctly pick which 3 or which 4 of the total of 5 characters have cats next to them.
But lets move this to General Discussion so more folks will see it.

oh, well. they are back to trying again to force people to buy memberships at RS in order just to download, like they did all of last summer. man those guys are dishonest operators. they are using the eyesight-straining 'count the cats' nonsense, but using even more wobbly graphics today.

Wow.
It's amazing how quickly things have changed. A few years ago RS was a miraculous new way to share files that was like a gift from the universe. It allowed forums like this one take off and multiply. But now instead of being grateful that FREE file sharing is possible, even respectable pornoisseurs such as yourself have developed a remarkable sense of entitlement about all the things you ought to get for free and without hassle...just because you want them. 
Ah, the American way.

I see it different.RS should be grateful.Because there are so many other good filehosters.We bring them the money & (had a premium account for a long time..but when they said that Premium folders who are bigger than 2o GB become XXL Storage and files last only 90 days when not downloaded..what the hell?!Why should I pay,when I can get it for free?!)
we make them big.

Normally I would say that as a private company Rapidshare has the right to do as they wish, but I have to agree that they are dishonest operators. What kind of a business are they, after all? Would they be economically viable if people didn't use them to share "naughty" files? All they do is try to skim money off of the top by playing both ends against the middle.
Beyond that, Rapidshare is guaranteed to piss people off. Every strategy they employ to get people to sign up is the same, make it more annoying to download for free. If you make it your business to annoy people you will succeed.

I am not so sure if I am respected after all, given your remarks. 
As to American, I`m a Canadian. Not that there is anything wrong with the 'American way', I suppose, especially if you`re an American
To be honest, I almost never download porn (in fact, I checked just now and I have 95 video clips totaling 10.2 GB which I wouldnt consider a large amount). When I reply to posts in the video section or in whichever section of the forum, it usually is for the purpose of saying thanks because somebody went through some trouble to share his/her stash and that deserves a thanks. I dont even download movies, music etc. via torrents, p2p, or newsgroups, and those platforms present virtually no interference to the downloader. So I think you`ve got me pegged wrong.
What I myself dislike, for the most part, is that I do wear glasses and when they trial-run a batch of variously designed imagery every spring/summer, they knowingly make it more difficult for some people to observe the kaptcha than need be. They could use larger font/graphics sizes and augment that by using a dozen character combinations if they like.

| Those cats are so well hidden behind the letters that I can't recognize them - at least if they would use dogs and cats it would be much easier... You know what guys? If I get one day so rich that I can buy the complete Rapidshare.com on the stock market I will allow a free acess to everyone who uploaded more than few GB of porn! |

I've got great eye sight, and every now and then I can't get the right combo, because of the damned cat.
Granted the cat is sitting and the dog is standing, and that's really the best way to tell them apart, but sometimes, RS gets them just right in the letter, that unless you've got the ability to blow up the image, you can't tell what's what. |

Dear Rapidshare;
After due consideration, I would like to suggest to you an alternative to the pussy pics you presently are relying upon.
Tits. Show four or five pictures of nude women from the waist up, pick one of the pictures at random, and have the visitor choose from four or five possible breast sizes. If a human cant properly pick the correct one among choices ranging from an A to a double E, it aint human, jack.
Sincerely, Abraxas,
Mariupol, Ukraine

Because some people use tools to download there for free as much as they want.  They really thought this could stop it.
But enjoy the Happy Hours!!Not sure how long they will last. |
what i don't understood are what are all these "tools" that people are using to bypass the system. the only tool i know of is batch file i wrote and it doesn't truly bypass the system
do you think they are referring to proxies? |
